Bar Tartine's Anthony Myint Serves Up Grub From Taco Truck Tonight

For those of you edgy kids hitting it in the Mission district tonight, Bar Tartine line cook Anthony Myint will be serving up batshit insane cheap, not to mention tasty, sandwiches from a taco truck all night long. He'll be at 21st Street and Mission. Details:
TONIGHT (THURSDAY): High-falootin' line cook from Bar Tartine goes all nitty gritty and shit.Anthony Myint is subletting an antojitos truck in what, hopefully, will become a recurring Thursday night event.
He'll be peddling an assortment of sandwiches, each served on a piece of homemade scallion flatbread. Among them, the highly anticipated PB&J (Pork Belly and Jicama) and the busty vegetarian King Trumpet (wild mushrooms and triple fried potato).
WHEN: Thursday night, 8pm-2am. Watch Biden dispense of Palin and then hop
down to 21st and Mission to still your beating heart.Um, prices are reasonable, dude. $3-$5.
Support local line cooks.
Prices, we're told, will range from $3-$5. Whoa, is right. A perfect way to start or end your night.


This is an excellent idea.
Great! A taco truck after likely heated debates, at the corner of douche bag and central. I'm getting a jump on this one.
No arrests have been made.
travin, I was thinking the same thing!
Missed that last night
Keep us posted if it happens again
It would be cool to see this catch on. Street food is a staple in cities the world over
The line was too epic for me. I went home and ate crap. Still, definitely looks like it'll catch on.
So did anyone go to this? and was it four kinds of awesome, or just three?
Hi, this is Anthony. Thanks to everyone who came and withstood a long wait, and sorry to anyone who came after we sold out. I was expecting a soft opening consisting of foot traffic and a couple of friends, but those friends did me the "favor" of spreading the word for the opening (as well as the favor of helping me in a pinch--thanks you guys).
Anyway, the truck came 40 minutes late and there were a few customers before I had even set foot inside to cook there for the first time ever. I was moving things in and getting organized when a friend texted me about a line in front. I will definitely be ready next week. I plan to be open every week, but in case of rain or serious mishap, I'll post closures here: http://missionstreetfood.blogspot.com.
Thanks again--it was great to see local eaters mobilize so quickly. See you Thursday.
